In mapmaking, the operation
of sighting on distant points
to locate one’s own position
is called resection. My work
springs from an effort to fix
myself within the shifting
complexity of the modern
landscape by either focusing
on existing landmarks or creating my own. Each new
artwork provides an additional bearing on the map I am
constructing of my place in the world. Recent projects
use installation, video, and digital media to explore how
specific places and events have an impact on both
artist and viewer. I am especially interested in how
these experiences are mediated by pre-existing mental
constructs like maps and models, and in the potential
for technology to radically alter the perceptual
relationship between individuals and their environment.
